    Creighton Postgame Thread

    4 fouls in 6 minutes is really bad for Serah. I guess she got in Geno's doghouse so she did not go back in. If she got her 5th foul, who cared. But it seems like after a good day before, you might give her more minutes to try to keep it going. But I guess he was sending her a message, if you...

    Top 3 Things You Want To See Tomorrow against Creighton- Game is at 2:30 pm at Mohegan Sun and on Peacock

    I don't think #1 will happen this late in the season against top bigs. I would like #2 also. #3 won't happen. Geno has them play to get wide open shots so they hardly ever draw fouls, at least for the ones who shoot the most. Sarah might get some, but Azzi, not much. Inside, they get blocked...

    UConn - New Season Starts Today

    In the NCAA I understand why some of the 16 seeds have to do the play in to get in, but why do some of the 11 seeds have to do a play in? Why not all 16 seeds? Or some 15 seeds. You get an 11 seed and your reward is you have to play another 11. Or they just mislabeling the teams, is it...

    Tennessee 2025, part 2

    I would not even put them in the tourney at 16-13, this is getting to be like any football team at .500 gets to a bowl game. At least there you can say it is about a bunch of companies wanting to have a corporate party so they sponsor a bowl and don't care about the quality of the teams. But...

    Jovana Popovic is a Husky!

    I hate seeing players shoot the 3, then they step back and admire it. Ok if they never miss a shot. I see players on some other teams, and as soon as they shoot, they are heading to the basket for a rebound if the shot misses. They can stay back if their assignment after a shot goes up is to...

    Villanova Postgame Thread

    Not to panic. Villanova played over their heads in some respects. Looks as though Carter was 2 for 8 for her 4 year career shooting 3's. she went off 3 for 3. Basco was shooting 27.5% for 3's this year. She shot 4 for 7. and there may be something to the story about the flu hitting the...

    Recruiting: Nell Angloma

    Why the rush to the WNBA? Have things changed that much from when Di and Sue had to play overseas to make the big bucks, not just in the WNBA. And wasn't Stewie playing in China? They might make more money from U.S. endorsements and such, but that is for Super Stars, not all WNBA players...

    2026 Recruiting: Sara Okeke

    If we don't get her, do we want/need to use the portal for a big? Or just leave the spot open for 2027 and assume Jana, Olivia and Ice can fill the 5? With Yana as the back up for Sarah?

    No Sarah Strong Today

    So I would guess Allie starts at the 4, K9 and Jana are the first 2 off the bench. Kellis and Yanna are the deep bench?

    No Sarah Strong Today

    Maybe she had the flu last game, toughed it out for limited minutes like Katie Lou, but now Geno her to rest and he makes the rest step it up. He did say it is for rest. He can be mum and just say someone is out and not give a reason, then we find out later it was for a twisted ankle, but...

    Jana and Serah question

    bigger question I see is they played 28 minutes combined against DePaul, not exactly a strong team, and got 6 fouls. If they keep fouling like this they won't be available if we need them.

    Big East Stuff: Weekly Honors 2/2 Allie wins Player of the Week Honors

    I see the write up does include mention of the Tennessee game as included. So I guess it is indeed Monday to Sunday.

    Big East Stuff: Weekly Honors 2/2 Allie wins Player of the Week Honors

    What are the dates for player of the week and freshman? Monday to Sunday? Sunday to Saturday? Was Tennessee game considered for the current awards? Is it part of next week's awards?

    UConn - ND post game (merged)

    seems like about this time of year Geno benched Stewie, called in the Freshman slump or something like that. BQ was shooting over 50% from 3, lately she has cooled off. Just so she is back on track in March and April.

    Game Analysis - Game 18 - UConn vs Villanova

    Numbers can lie. Bascoe scores a lot, but she shoots 40% overall, 30% from 3. She just shoots a lot. Those percentages are not first team BE for me. Kind of like Hidalgo having a lot of 9 for 25 shots when other players are shooing 50%. The more she shoots the better. Maybe why Miles...
